A long time ago, we deleted/disabled our aws account and I assumed that all my files on s3 would also get deleted. When we reactivated the account a few yearss later, we were retroactively billed for all the files in the s3 bucket. We

This would be called "abandon du poste". In the worst case, you would risk getting a "faute grave" added into your police register ("casier judiciaire"). Your employer could also sue you for damages. Best is al

There can't be too much or too less electricity in the grid. So it's normal that the power operators can shut off larger producers, as they can also shut off large consumers. This has nothing to do with corruption.

You should take a holiday and really think about what you would like to achieve next and why you want to sell. If your decision is to sell (not now, but it will take some time...), then talk to 2 or 3 of such companies, explain your situati

Normally, you won't sell to a strategic if you have not have had a business relationship with him before and he sees significantly value in your business. As for private Equity, it probably depends on the fund, but I would assume most

Many years ago, there were discussions here in Luxembourg to build a nuclear power plant together with the French in the east of Luxembourg. The "greens" at that time were against it, so it was not being build. But the french buil

Depending on the ingredients used to form the concrete used when building a dam, it can happen that the concrete inflates and puts enormous pressure on the damn. In that case, they let the water out of the dam and use a diamond chain saw to

I know that this is unpopular here, but a lot of people (including me) don't mind that they get targeted ads. If you fear for abuse, then there should be clear laws what should not be allowed and severe punishment for this. But forbidd

I don't want to infer that this is their only goal. But it's certainly a strategy they will be pursuing and they certainly wouldn't mind introducing the famous apple tax on all ads shown on their devices.

I also don't mind being tracked. If I must see ads, then I rather see relevant ads. There is nothing bad in this. I don't understand the facebook/google bashing here. It's not as you could advertise on apple for somethin

Let's hope that they catch all those who did this. In germany, they are also going to vote a law before christmas that the crime can still be followed up after 10 years in order to bring all of them to court who did this in germany.

Indeed. It's normal that you get only a small portion, or even none at all of the amount of shares you requested if there is a lot of interest (in Tech there normally is). Maybe you are more lucky if you are a customer of the bank prep

If your app would scrape videos from netflix, disney+, etc... and save them locally, how would that be different from what you are doing now? You would be blocked as well.

That's not true. In some cantons, the very rich get extra deals, called Lump-sum tax, independently of their revenues. E.g. the Ikea founder only paid around 165000$ in total taxes in 2014 on a fortune of 46.5 billion US $ and all his

If it's a friend and only takes 2 days, why not just build it for him? If you plan on only working on it 2 days with minimal maintenance afterwards, and your friend is working on it full time (marketing), then you should own 0%.
